[Qgis-user] compute spatial derivatives from raster bands

Hi,

QGIS core (the analysis library) do not expose such function directly, but
it does have methods to compute derivatives that are internally used by all
the "9 cells" algorithms (slope, aspect, ruggedness and hillshade) and the
derivative calculation is accelerated by OpenCL if available, exposing the
derivatives directly requires a small development but it is definitely
possible.
